Ports
	Multi Port Why have one port underwater when you can have three? With the Gates Multi Port, you can convert from wide angle to macro all in the same dive! Sporting a bayonet mount system, the Multi Port starts with a Flat Port Adapter, to which you can interchange a Wide Angle Lens or Macro Lens underwater.
	Wide Angle Port When you need a wide perspective, this .5X lens gives you a wide field of view, up to 90 degrees. With a scalloped shade and anti-reflective coated optics, this lens provides excellent wide angle performance, and can also focus on objects at zero distance (like a crab crawling on the dome).
	Standard Port A 1:1 lens, the Standard Port is optically corrected for underwater use. It has good macro and full zoom through capability for the most versatile range of underwater shots.
	Flat Port Excellent for macro work, the Flat Port is well suited to applications requiring a narrow field of view with no optical corrections.

Lights
	NiteRider Pro HID Light System These High-Intensity Discharge (HID) lights not only have 1.9 hours of extended burn time, but produce a 6000†K daylight color temperature. Consuming only 10 watts, they generate the equivalent of 40 watts output. Each HID lamp has a diffuse 90† beam for excellent wide angle to macro shots without annoying shadows.
	Underwater Kinetics Light Cannon 100 HID Using 8 Alkaline, NiMH or NiCad batteries, these powerful HID lights burn up to 4 hours and produce a wide 40-50 degree beam for video use. Also daylight-balanced at 6000†K, these versatile lights can be used in or out of water, and as a primary dive light when not shooting video. Package comes with Gates flex arms and light mounts..

Accessories
	Gates Pak For the global diver, the Gates Pak includes everything you'll need for that remote expedition: spare o-ring set, dome cleaner/polisher, Gates housing drying towel, and a hard-sided, waterproof case with pluck-foam liner. The Gates Pak is free with any purchase of a housing, port, and light system.
	Water Alarm For that extra peace of mind, Gates offers an optional moisture detector for nearly all housings. In the rare event that water enters your housing, the detector sets off a shrill warning easily heard underwater.
	Tripod Mount For truly stable, professional looking images, mount your Gates housing to a tripod or monopod with this convenient accessory. The tripod mount has two threaded inserts to accommodate nearly all tripod attachment systems.
	Microphone Capture the sounds of the underwater world – whale song, reef clatter, or your buddy’s bubbles – with this submersible microphone.
	Gates Pole Want to see what's below the water without getting wet? Now with the Gates Pole, you can. Available in three telescoping lengths with an articulating pivot head, you get maximum control of your Gates housing for those shark shots and boat inspections. With the optional video cable you can view everything topside in real time.
